Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is one of the biggest games of the year, but according to the stats it’s also one of the biggest in entire history of CoD. In a recent investors blog post, Activision has revealed some of the numbers that Modern Warfare has to boast about, and it’s some seriously impressive stuff.
According to Activision, Modern Warfare has “outpaced all previous Call of Duty multiplayer experiences of this generation in hours played, hours per player and average daily players.” In terms of actual figures, you’re looking at “500 million multiplayer hours played since release with nearly 300 million multiplayer matches.” That’s a lot of kills.
It’s also noted that the game is “on its way to becoming the most played Call of Duty multiplayer in the first 50 days since launch in six years.”
Activision has also revealed that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare has crossed $1 billion USD in worldwide sell-through within the first 50 days of its release.
Even though the game is out, it’s by no means over for the Modern Warfare developers. Alongside the launch of Season One of CoD, we’re also enjoying a pretty consistent roll out of brand-new updates and content in what’s the “largest free content offering in franchise history.”
Byron Beede, executive vice president and general manager for Call of Duty, Activision, said in a statement: “The momentum for Modern Warfare from day one has been incredible. Players are having a great time and are continuing to engage across the multiplayer experience at the highest level in years.
“We’re also seeing new franchise highs for this console generation in hours played, hours per player and average daily players.
“It’s great to see the fan response to the hard work from our development teams led by Infinity Ward. Players are having a great time, and there’s much more to come as we continue to deliver new content.”
